Hypoxia regulates RhoA and Wnt/β-catenin signaling in a context-dependent way to control re-differentiation of chondrocytes

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Cartilage tissue is avascular and hypoxic which regulates chondrocyte phenotype via stabilization of HIFs. Here, we investigated the role of hypoxia and HIFs in regulation of Rho and canonical Wnt signaling in chondrocytes.

Mini-open Subpectoral Biceps Tenodesis Using All-Suture Anchor

open access: yesArthroscopy Techniques, 2020
The proximal biceps tendon is a common source of shoulder pain and dysfunction. When patients continue to have pain after exhaustive nonoperative treatment, the long head of the biceps tendon can be effectively treated with a tenotomy or tenodesis ...

Self-diffusion of polymers in cartilage as studied by pulsed field gradient NMR [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Pulsed field gradient (PFG) nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) was used to investigate the self-diffusion behaviour of polymers in cartilage. Polyethylene glycol and dextran with different molecular weights and in different concentrations were used as ...

Extracellular Vesicles: A Potential Biomarker for Quick Identification of Infectious Osteomyelitis

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2020
Effective management of infectious osteomyelitis relies on timely microorganism identification and appropriate antibiotic therapy. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) carry protein and genetic information accumulated rapidly in the circulation upon infection ...

Nocturnal Changes in Knee Cartilage Thickness in Young Healthy Adults [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) allows one to analyze cartilage physiology in vivo. Cartilage deforms during loading, but little is known about its recovery after deformation.

Bone Loss Rate May Interact with Other Risk Factors for Fractures among Elderly Women: A 15-Year Population-Based Study

open access: yesJournal of Osteoporosis, 2010
Aim was to investigate fracture risk (FR) according to bone loss (BL) rate. A random sample of 1652 women aged 53.5 years was measured with dual X-ray absorptiometry in femoral neck in 1989 and 1994 and divided into tertiles of annual BL rate: high >0.84%

NF-κB Signaling Pathways in Osteoarthritic Cartilage Destruction

open access: yesCells, 2019
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a type of joint disease associated with wear and tear, inflammation, and aging. Mechanical stress along with synovial inflammation promotes the degradation of the extracellular matrix in the cartilage, leading to the breakdown of ...
